<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2879935, member: 19463&quot;]I&#039;d call this a worthy example of an interesting type which I would be happy to welcome in my collection.&nbsp; Most Vota coins use a numeral rather than spelling out the length of time involved in the vows.&nbsp; Not just using VOT X is what makes this type special. </p><p><br /></p><p>I can not agree with the photo choices.&nbsp; The problem with daylight is that you only work when the weather cooperates and that is not always when best fits your schedule.&nbsp; Artificial light is harsh and weird if you tell it to be and does not improve or worsen automatically if you wait as does daylight.&nbsp; In the case of your photo, I would have preferred the light fall more on the face and less on the back of the head as it would had you rotated the coin about 45 degrees counterclockwise.&nbsp; This is easier that moving the sun or waiting until it gets where you want it.&nbsp;&nbsp; I don&#039;t have many SS Laodicea coins and don&#039;t have this type but don&#039;t consider the one below offensively harsh or weird.&nbsp; If you do, it would be possible to diffuse the light a bit more a soften contrasts.&nbsp; It is all a matter of preferences.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]690043[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
